Begin with the right questions
US and Canadian requirements differ. Research the actual state, province or territory and the activities the organization intends to conduct.
Questions before you begin
Is Canada covered by the US licensing model?
No. Canadian education authorization is jurisdiction-specific and should be researched with qualified provincial or territorial specialists.
What should I prepare for an initial consultation?
Bring a short overview of your institution, current operating and licensing status, program plans, intended market and the decisions you need help making. Avoid including confidential student or financial records in an initial inquiry.
What happens after the initial discussion?
A proposed engagement should define the workstreams, deliverables, responsibilities, specialist involvement and commercial terms. No regulator or accreditor decision is represented as assured.
